Young Empires’ ‘The Gates’ Gets the Teen Daze Remix Treatment

On their recent single “The Gates”, Canadian three piece Young Empires keep one foot rooted on the dance floor even amidst the buoyancy of the track’s synthy ascendancy. And while there’s ample impetus for movement in its rhythms, there’s still a laconic element that cuts through. For his remix, fellow Canadian musician Teen Daze, long one of our favorites, teases that essence out. The beat still compels, but it’s shot through with Teen Daze’s trademark twinkling effervescence.

“Teen Daze flips ‘The Gates’ on its head, transforming it into a sexy dream pop dance track perfect for an afternoon of yachting or dance floor love making,” the band says.
